Shirley Jones
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Shirley's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Shirley Jones comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Shirley Jones - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Shirley Jones" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Shirley a little better. This page describes the disguise Jones wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

She is a gentle, sensitive person with a deep understanding of people and a very tolerant, accepting, non-judgmental approach towards life. In a noisy, competitive atmosphere Shirley Jones is often receding and withdrawn for she is not an aggressive, forceful person, and she intensely dislikes conflict. In fact Shirley tends to be somewhat passive, to wait, watch, observe, feel and know much - but to act little. Letting things resolve or work themselves out in their own way, rather than directing or forcing her will upon them is often Jones' way of dealing with problems.

Shirley Jones may have a deeply religious or spiritual feeling about life, not in the orthodox sense necessarily, but an intuitive sense of the immensity and underlying oneness of all life, which makes so many human aspirations seem rather unimportant. She needs peaceful surroundings in order to flourish, and periods of quiet solitude are essential for Jones' emotional balance and well-being.

Shirley Jones is also very compassionate and cannot tolerate seeing any fellow creature suffer - be it human, animal, or even plant! As a child Shirley Jones probably cried very easily and became quite upset whenever others were hurt, physically or emotionally. The world of Jones' imagination and fantasy was also very real to Jones, a place to escape to when the outside world became too harsh, demanding, or simply uninteresting.

Because she is very giving and forgiving, people sense Jones' sympathetic nature and gravitate toward her when in need. Often Jones will continue to give to people even when she realizes they are taking advantage of her or becoming overly dependent upon her. Shirley Jones overlooks and makes excuses for other people's weaknesses, and for her own as well. Discrimination and self-discipline are not Jones' strong points.

Though she may be as intelligent as anyone else, she does not really have a rational, logical approach toward life, and trying to reach Shirley through logical arguments is often futile. Her feelings, intuition, and heart, not her head, lead her, which may infuriate or bewilder Jones' more rational friends. Shirley Jones certainly recognizes that there is much more to life than can be explained intellectually and categorized into neat little boxes, and Shirley Jones has an open, receptive attitude toward such areas as psychic phenomena, telepathy, parapsychology, etc. She is not as structured and rigid in her attitudes as many people are, which enables Shirley Jones to see many different points of view and to accept all of them as valid. This can lead to vagueness, uncertainty, and confusion on her part - or to a very flexible and holistic way of approaching any issue.

There is a certain intensity, charisma or compelling attractiveness about Shirley Jones that may have little to do with her physical features. It is energy, a subtle sexuality that she emanates. Moreover, Jones tends to do everything wholeheartedly and with passion, which is quite fascinating to other people. Her instincts and psychological perceptions about others are quite incisive.

Jones strongly resents daily routine and is always ready and willing to challenge life. Responding quickly to people around her, Shirley Jones spontaneously connects with them and tends to become stimulated through them.
